His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1123 The Plan

'Shirley is a simple little girl. She will believe whatever I tell her. But Clark is different. He is sensitive

and shrewd. And he will read my mind like an open book. I have to be extremely careful when I talk to

him, ' Sheryl thought.

"I know that they must want to go to school. But hold on for another day. Once we hold the press

conference and prove your innocence, everything is gonna be fine," Charles comforted her.

"I hope so. Do I need to be at the conference tomorrow?" Sheryl asked.

"You'd better come. Nancy can watch the kids. I will send a car to pick you up. Try not to be discovered

by the paparazzi. Even if they do catch you off guard, it's okay. After all, the truth will come out soon,"

Charles replied. There was a hint of relief and delight in his voice.

Sheryl agreed with him. She said, "You have a point. I will be there tomorrow."

After leaving the cafe, Duncan walked alone on the road pensively. He mulled over what Holley had

said. He had to take this opportunity and get himself back inside Tarsan Corporation.

'The only way to get my job back is to please Rachel, ' he thought.

He used all his connections and finally found Sheryl's address, Dream Garden. Without any hesitation,

he drove straight to where Sheryl lived and lurked outside her house.

He had arrived at Dream Garden right after lunch. But soon, night set in. He hadn't seen a single soul

anywhere near the house. No one left and no one went in either. He lost his patience and was

disappointed by the lack of activity. Just when he was about to leave, he caught sight of a figure in the

yard.

Excited, he drew closer to get a clear picture of the person. Judging by her attire, he assumed that she

was a maid of the household.

His enthusiasm vanished instantly. 'She is just a servant. She can't be of any help, ' he thought. He

decided to give up and go home.

"Hello, why are you calling me often now?" The maid's voice reached Duncan's ears. He didn't know

whom the old woman was talking to and he wasn't interested.

"Tomorrow? I can't take the day off tomorrow! Can we meet some other day?"

'The maid is on a private call. Turns out she came to the yard to take the call because she didn't want

to bother her employers, ' Duncan anayzed.

"Sher is going to attend a conference tomorrow. It's very important for her, so I have to stay home and

watch the kids....Yes, I will be home alone," Nancy continued to chat, unaware of the man in the

vicinity.

Although Duncan had walked away from the yard, he could hear her every word. An evil smile lingered

on his lips.

'So, Sheryl is attending a press conference tomorrow. She must want to clarify that she didn't cheat on

her husband. Now that she is daring enough to face the reporters, she must have evidence to prove

her innocence. She wouldn't do this without proof.

In other words, Sheryl might get rid of this situation she is in. That would make Rachel very angry. And

worse, she might change her mind about letting me return to Tarsan Corporation.

After all, Holley suggested that I handle Sheryl.

If Sheryl proves that she was set up, Rachel might put all the blame on me for not being able to take

care of the situation in time.

I can't allow that to happen.

I must find a way to dissolve this issue!

The only thing Rachel would want to hear is Sheryl admitting that she had an affair, ' he brooded.

"How about the day after tomorrow? Yes, I am absolutely busy tomorrow. I will be home alone and I

need to look after the kids," Nancy explained to the caller.

The person whom she was speaking to seemed to have something urgent to do with her. And that was

why she raised her voice when she spoke.

Duncan's face lit up like Christmas.

'Good! This is good. I am so lucky!

Children mean everything to their mother, ' he thought with a sneer. Without being noticed by Nancy, he

walked away silently from Dream Garden.

The next morning, Sheryl was all set for the press conference. Before leaving, she said to Nancy, "Take

care of the children. I have to go now."

"Don't worry, Sher, I will take good care of them," Nancy nodded reassuringly.

"Shirley, Clark, Mommy is leaving now," Sheryl said to the kids.

"Where are you going, Mommy?" Shirley asked with an innocent look in her eyes.

"Baby, didn't I tell you that I had something to do today?" Sheryl said patiently.

"Mom, you said that you would take me to school in a few days. It has been too long. When will you

drop us off at school?" Clark blurted out all his doubts which he had bottled up for several days. Since

his mother had looked absent-minded for the past few days, he had never brought it up to avoid

troubling her.

He had been a good son and did whatever she had asked of him. His purpose was to set Sheryl's mind

at ease.

He was a good actor and he had successfully fooled his mother. Sheryl thought that he knew nothing

about the rumors.

The truth was that Clark had learned about the news about his mother from his phone the day it had

been released on the internet. He didn't mention it to his parents because he believed his mother and

knew that his father could help his mother out.

'Mom is finally going out. Does this mean that Dad found a way to help her solve this problem?' Clark

thought, a bit thrilled.

"I know that you are bored out of your minds at home without being able to attend school. But don't

worry. If everything goes well, you can go back to school tomorrow," Sheryl beamed.

Clark could sense the relief in Sheryl's tone. Besides, his mother gave him a genuine smile. He

concluded that his mother's problems were going to be settled soon. With a bright smile, he exclaimed,

"That sounds good, Mom. You are the best. I love you!"

"Thank you, honey," Sheryl said, looking at her son affectionately. His simple words warmed her tensed Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

heart.

"Be good and play with Nancy at home. I will be back soon," Sheryl said as she stroke their heads

fondly.

"Mom, I want pizza. Can you buy some on your way back?" Shirley asked in a cute girly voice, as she

blinked her large, innocent eyes.

"Sure, darling. I will buy the bigger one so that you can eat with your brother, okay?" Sheryl said with so

much love for her little daughter.

"Great! Thank you, Mommy!" Shirley smiled from ear to ear and waved her hand enthusiatically.

"Bye!" Sheryl waved back at them with a wide smile.

"Bye, Mommy!" Clark said.

"Bye, Mommy!" Shirley said again, along with Clark. The two kids waved their goodbyes with a glee on

their little faces.

When Sheryl got out of Dream Garden, there was no paparazzo stalking her. Things had gone well so

far. She was in a good mood.
